Here we give an extended review of the quasilinear reformulation of the Lovelock gravitational field equations in harmonic gauge presented in 1409.6656 [gr-qc]. This is important in order to establish rigorously well-posedness of the theory…

Recently a $D$-dimensional regularization approach leading to the non-trivial $(3+1)$-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) effective description of gravity was formulated which was claimed to bypass the Lovelock's theorem and avoid…

We consider some classes of Horndeski theories in four dimensions for which a certain combination of the Einstein equations within a spherical ansatz splits into two distinct branches. Recently, for these theories, some integrability and…

We investigate the linear stability of the two known branches of spherically-symmetric black holes in Quadratic Gravity. We extend previous work on the long-wavelength (Gregory-Laflamme) instability of the Schwarzschild branch to a…

We examine the thermodynamics of a new class of asymptotically AdS black holes with non-constant curvature event horizons in Gauss-Bonnet Lovelock gravity, with the cosmological constant acting as thermodynamic pressure. We find that…

We study stability of singularity-free cosmological solutions with positive cosmological constant based on projectable Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz (HL) theory. In HL theory, the isotropic and homogeneous cosmological solutions with bounce can be…

In this paper, we obtain a static black string solution for a bilocal gravitational source in 3+1 dimensions. The solution is regular at the origin and tends asymptotically to the ordinary static uncharged black string solution of general…

General relativity admits a plethora of exact compact object solutions. The augmentation of Einstein's action with non-minimal coupling terms leads to modified theories with rich structure, which, in turn, provide non-trivial solutions with…

Motivated by the string corrections on the gravity and electrodynamics sides, we consider a quadratic Maxwell invariant term as a correction of the Maxwell Lagrangian to obtain exact solutions of higher dimensional topological black holes…

One of the major obstacles to testing alternative theories of gravity with gravitational-wave data from merging binaries of compact objects is the formulation of their field equations, which is often mathematically ill-suited for time…

Here we propose a new method to study gravitational stability of the solutions to the Einstein equations. This method uses the canonical superenergy density and it is different from approaches already used (Lyapunov's stability, dynamical…

We present, in closed analytic form, a general stationary, slowly rotating black hole, which is solution to a large class of alternative theories of gravity in four dimensions. In these theories, the Einstein-Hilbert action is supplemented…

This paper studies a class of $D=n+2(\ge 6)$ dimensional solutions to Lovelock gravity that is described by the warped product of a two-dimensional Lorentzian metric and an $n$-dimensional Einstein space. Assuming that the angular part of…

We examine the stability of steady-state galileon accretion for the case of a Schwarzshild black hole. Considering the galileon action up to the cubic term in a static and spherically symmetric background we obtain the general solution for…

Many and very general arguments indicate that the event horizon behaves as a stretched membrane. We explore this analogy by associating the Gregory-Laflamme instability of black strings with a classical membrane instability known as…

I dynamically evolve spherically symmetric spacetimes containing gravitational 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles and determine the stable end states of the evolutions. I do so to study stability and critical behavior of the well-known static…

The Schwarzschild solution describes a classical static black hole in general relativity. When general relativity is extended by including semiclassical corrections in the form of a renormalized energy-momentum tensor, the horizon of the…

We investigate the entropy of black holes in Gauss-Bonnet and Lovelock gravity using the Noether charge approach, in which the entropy is given as the integral of a suitable (n-2) form charge over the event horizon. We compare the results…

We consider (1+1)-dimensional dilaton gravity with a reflecting dynamical boundary. The boundary cuts off the region of strong coupling and makes our model causally similar to the spherically-symmetric sector of multidimensional gravity. We…

The generalization of Birkhoff's theorem to higher dimensions in Lovelock gravity allows for black hole solutions with horizon geometries of non-constant curvature. We investigate thermodynamic aspects of these `exotic' black hole…
